| Abstract | Threats to religious freedom can come from government restriction on religious practices. But the greater threat to religious liberty comes when religious groups influence governments to promote their own activities and beliefs. Powerful and well-funded religious groups, ranging from the religious right to the Roman Catholic church, are using greater and broader methods to influence government. This book examines the changing role of religion in government and education. There are 11 chapters: (1) "Why So Many Church-State Problems?; (2) "Church-State Relations in the Middle Ages"; (3) "The Evolution of Church-State Separation in the United States"; (4) "The De Facto Protestant Establishment in 19th-Century America"; (5) "The Issue That Won't Go Away: Religion in Public Schools"; (6) "Parochiad"; (7) "Free Exercise"; (8) "Symbols and Sunday Laws: Other Church-State Problems"; (9) "Thy Kingdom Come: Christian Reconstructionism"; (10) "Suggestions for the Separationist Citizen Activist"; and (11) "Whither Separation?" Four appendices include common myths about separation of church and state, a short history of the religious right, major religious right organizations, and suggestions for further reading. Endnotes, an index, and four appendices are included. (JPT) |
